Events in Telford From 6th April – 12th April 2026

You can find community events across Telford this week from 5 to 12 April 2026, with activities in Dawley Village Hall and the Telford Town Centre Library. Children take part in spring break workshops focused on recycled materials during weekday afternoons. Live music happens at The Lido Bar near Wellington Road and within the Gateway Theatre complex, which hosts folk acts and rock tribute evenings. These performances take place close to Telford’s original Ironbridge Gorge industrial landmarks.

Cycling events include a time trial on Whitchurch Road during morning hours, drawing riders from nearby towns connected by M54 motorway access points. Community fairs occur at Belmont Community Hall, where collectors exchange postcards and rare stamps in a space once used for railway dispatch operations.

Theatre events continue through storytelling evenings held in former industrial buildings, echoing Telford’s roots as an engineered new town. Performances include scripted narratives drawn from 1970s factory life records, delivered by actors trained at the West Midlands Theatre School. These are not for spectacle but serve civic memory and intergenerational dialogue.

For quieter moments, a sound bath session led by local wellness practitioner Maria Hughes runs on 8 April in the Telford Health & Wellbeing Hub near Sapphire House. Capgemini now operates from this building since relocating from Bristol.
